If the mainstream media tells you something is simple, it's probably complicated. If they tell you it's complicated, it's probably simple. In fact, you probably just shouldn't listen to what they tell you at all.
MSNBC is airing this, 60 minutes just aired 8 month old footage of U.S. bombs in Gaza. What's going on? Why is the liberal media suddenly admitting what we've been saying all along? We know it's not because they suddenly found their souls, so what's the angle?
"Shutting down traffic won't make anyone sympathize with your cause."
B!tch, if 15,000+ murdered children doesn't make you "sympathize" with the "cause", nothing I do is going to make you.
Brian Thompson's killer could admit it and immediately have 10,000 people swear he was in their company the whole time and couldn't possibly have done it.
What if an ambulance needs to get through? What about people who have to go to work? What if someone misses their kid's graduation or mother's funeral?
Or do we not care about those questions when cops instead of protesters block the roads?
If you support the Palestinians, please stop using the 40,000 death toll figure. The Lancet's "conservative estimate" was 186,000 and that was about a month ago.
Notice how the haters have given up trying to find evidence of Aaron Bushnell's alleged "mental illness"? Because everything that turns up about this guy's past and online presence shows he was far more beautiful than they could dream of being.
Losing my sh!t at people still saying we have to vote Biden because Trump would be worse. What's worse than genocide? Losing a dEmoCraCy we never had? LOL.
I won't vote for Genocide Joe.
But I also won't vote for Genocide Kamala, Genocide Gavin, Genocide Gretchen, Genocide Pete and most certainly not Genocide Hillary.
Dems, if you want my vote, find someone who opposes genocide.
Senator Lindsey Graham on International Criminal Court prosecutor requesting arrest warrants for Israeli leaders:
"If they'll do this to Israel, we're next."
He applauds Secretary Antony Blinken, President Joe Biden, and Senator Chuck Schumer for their statements on the matter.
"POTUS/VPOTUS couldn't have stopped the execution of Marcellus Williams".
And there in a nutshell is why I'm not voting Dem. If the supposedly most powerful people in the world can't even try, won't even speak up, then what's the point?
So we're supposed to believe the guy who was savvy enough to shoot a CEO, walk away clean and leave a bag of Monopoly money just happened to get caught at a McDonald's with a manifesto? Sure, Jan.
I (sadly, a very white woman) would like to start wearing a keffiyeh in solidarity, but am concerned it might be cultural appropriation. Thoughts? And if I should, any suggestions on a good place to get some (preferably some place that would actually benefit Palestinians)?
Apparently a lot of you need to hear this: if you are excusing things like the r-slur, transphobia, nazi tattoos, genocide, etc., you are not on the left.
Chase Bank no longer allows Zelle payments to people you've met on social media. Supposedly for protection against fraud. More likely to make mutual aid more difficult.
Just overheard my co-worker on the phone saying "I leave the house at 7:00 and don't get home until 6:00, so that's 11 hours and I only get paid for 7." Might just radicalize this office yet.
Chicago police were so concerned for Dexter Reed's safety when he wasn't wearing a seat belt that they shot him 96 times to protect him. Who says the police don't serve us?
The cop that shot at the burger eating kid was fired and we're trained to think that's a good thing rather than asking why tf he hasn't been charged with attempted murder.
They suspended Scott Ritter? The UN weapons inspector who was right about Iraq not having WMD??? Well that's how you know he's right again.
For shame, @Twitter.
Maybe it's just because I'm surrounded by affluent liberals, but I'm finding more and more that the majority of people are very shallow. Besides work, sports and movies/TV/other entertainment, they have very little to talk about.
The dude is 26 years old. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess he knows how to use the Internet. Why tf would he be carrying a paper copy of a manifesto?
So you literally think this disorganized mob, most of whom were unarmed, literally thought they'd be able to take over the government of the most militarized country in the history of the planet? LMFAO.
I love how western media call them the "Houthi rebels" in lockstep. They are the legit government of Yemen.
Community note
The Houthi movement are mostly Zaidi Shia Muslims from northern Yemen who opposed Hadi’s government, and are believed to be supported by Iran. Their war with the government has caused one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises:

So we're supposed to believe a cop-provided transcript that happens to use a lot of cop speak and happens to conveniently tie up all the loose ends is genuine?
Robinson wrote to his roommate/romantic partner about how the messages on his bullets were "mostly a big meme" and about how he'll hear the "notices bulge" thing on Fox News.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but just because someone refuses to go to a homeless shelter does not mean they are "refusing housing" or "don't want to be housed." Spend a night in a shelter yourself before saying such nonsense.
I'm so naive that I honestly thought when Israel started accusing a UN agency of being Hamas that the gig would finally be up, that even the western world would finally see the desperation. WTF will it take?
Maduro legitimately won in Venezuela, yet the U.S. tried to intervene to overthrow him. Macron legitimately lost in France and is refusing to give up power, yet the U.S. is not intervening. This is the "democracy" the Democrats talk about.
So 4 test kits per address. If you live alone, test yourself 4 times. If there are two of you, 2 each. Family of 4. 1 each. Family of five or more, pick your favorites, I guess.
"Would Ted Bundy or Timothy McVeigh make a better president?"
Normal people: Uh, no thank you.
Liberals: Which one is running on the Democratic ticket?
Can you imagine if the U.S. did what Israel is doing? If we herded all the indigenous people into camps and starved and poisoned and killed them?
Oh, wait, we already did that. No wonder we support Israel doing it.
Clinton and Biden are both credibly accused of rape, yet we're supposed to believe that Democrats are really horrified that Trump paid off a hooker. Please.
"Harris should support an arms embargo to improve her chances of winning."
No, she should support an arms embargo because genocide is evil, regardless how well it's polling. WTF is wrong with you people?
Yeah, people who have killed 30,000+ civilians, wounded at least twice that, displaced 1.9 million people, destroyed every hospital in Gaza, killed journalists and medics, etc. - those people don't understand how they can be accused of genocide. My Aunt Fanny.
CDC:
- 6' social distancing.
- Don't wear a mask.
- Oh, we lied, wear a mask.
- 3' feet social distancing is as good as 6'.
- Wear two masks.
- But not outdoors.
- Vaccines don't prevent spread.
- Vaccinated people don't have to wear masks at all.
???
Do you know how many fathers, husbands, etc. Brian Thompson killed in the name of profit? Not to mention wives, mothers, children? Go worship him on someone else's timeline.
It's always a depressing day when you post about cops shooting a guy 96 times over 41 seconds and your replies are flooded with people defending it. Not surprising in this fascist country, but still depressing.
This is a children’s book that was written because the author was trying to explain what’s going on in Israel to his five-year-old daughter and he couldn’t find a resource with which to do it so he wrote one himself. Under the Rockets' Glow: Shira's Journey to Courage by Roman Sandler is beautiful and I recommended highly.

I just can't get over that IOF soldiers dressed as women and medics, invaded a hospital, killed people in cold blood in their beds and yet the world believes Israel's story that those killed were the "terrorists". Who besides Israel could get away with that?
An expat is a citizen of one country who goes to another country to make a better life for themselves. Which is also what an immigrant is. But we use the former for rich white people and the latter for poor Brown people.
Hold up, pardner. No one has any clue whether he's the killer or not. For now he is strictly a person of interest and is innocent. Personally, I think the story we're being fed is way too convenient.
"Solving homelessness is such a complicated problem."
No, literally it isn't. The solution is right there in the name of the problem. Homeless + home = no longer homeless.
According to Israel, the fact that Palestinians fled their homes during the Nabka means it's Israel's land. And the fact that the Israelites fled from the Romans 2000 years ago means it's Israel's land.
I guess I'm naive, but it was only recently that I learned that "modern Hebrew" is an almost completely made up language and now I find out that Nutandyahoo's paternal grandfather was "Nathan Mileikowsky". Is there anything real about this country? Certainly not "Israeli food".
